Abstract
We investigated changes of plasma oxytocin levels before and after the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI, George et al., 1985), which is supposed to trigger emotionally laden memories of early attachment experiences as well as associations between oxytocin levels and attachment security. Our sample consisted of 82 premenopausal female adults.
